What is the best way to find investment properties?

[John T.]

Hey All,

I am wondering what the best route to finding properties is. I have been using a realtor that primarily deals with residential properties and not so much investments. I am in the market for a 4+ unit buildings but every time I see a good deal on the MLS, it is sold before I can get to it. Not to mention that there aren't many good deals to begin with.

Do you use a realtor that specializes in investment properties, or have a different method?

Thanks
